This is the "loggia-gallery" with several original plywood tables designed by Wright. A new word for me — a "loggia" is a "roofed but open gallery or arcade along the front or side of a building."

I thought this was a nice use of indirect natural lighting in the building.
The interior view first followed by an exterior view.

This is the bell that used to hang at the top of the prow on the outside.
I believe the tour guide said that the wind blew it down,
so they decided to keep it inside.
I can imagine the concern if that bell went through the glass prow....

And of course there is a fireplace.
The Hearth Room is located directly behind the auditorium.
